February 22 – 25, 2024
The annual Miami Boat Show Poker Run finds a new home for 2024, as we return to the highly acclaimed Hawks Cay Resort & Marina which ranks high with boaters and has been a Florida Powerboat Club destination since the early 1990’s. In fact FPC first visited Hawks Cay in November of 1994, making this middle Keys resort our event headquarters for the 2nd Annual Key West Poker Run. Over the years, we have returned many times, and witnessed the amazing property development with the construction of hundreds of luxurious two and three bedroom cottage villas, along with the addition of new restaurants and many upgrades to the main resort and convention facilities. Located on Duck Key just 6 miles from Marathon, this destination puts boaters in the middle Keys with plenty of cruising opportunities both north and south, to various other Keys for waterfront dining, snorkeling on reefs, and calm bay waters for pleasant raft up and rendezvous functions.
Performance Manufacturers Showcase! Not forgetting our event’s early roots, the Miami Boat Show Poker Run provides FPC dealer and manufacturing sponsors with the opportunity to showcase their latest new models. While it is certainly nice to see these new boats on display at the Miami International Boat Show just a week earlier, most agree they would prefer to see these new models out on the water, and maybe get a chance for a demo ride in the heart of powerboating paradise. Primary docking locations will be provided to all of the event Series Sponsors and Feature Sponsors, so please contact Stu Jones if you are not already registered as a marine sponsor.

Registration is currently limited to 60 Powerboat teams, so this event WILL SET OUT QUICKLY!
